Subject: Why is Ruby 1.8.6 RC1 more recent than Ruby 1.8.6 Final?



Getting to the Ruby One-click installer for Windows, we may go to

    http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/

and then

    http://rubyinstaller.org/download.html

however over there, it seems that

    Ruby 1.8.6 RC1 (patchlevel 383)

is actually more recent than

    Ruby 1.8.6 RC2 (patchlevel 27)

or

    Ruby 1.8.6 Final (patchlevel 26)

If I install them on different machines, the RC1 actually shows a more
recent date than RC2 or Final, by using

ruby -v

What's the rule? Does it go strictly by patchlevel? That is, the
patchlevel decides how update it is, instead of whether it is RC1, RC2,
or Final?
